RhinoScript – Rhino for designing packaging

we actually had a project where we worked with unfolding and creating cutting templates. But everyone designed their own geometric module and unfolding script (most of us actually did a complete redraw in 2d based on the specific geometry). So we have no unfolding script... you can see a slideshow of the project at www.uni-kassel.de/fb12/wwtwl/projekte/ParamSrfPatches/

Hey I was at Kassel before the summerbreak and met you guys, I was pretty curious about if you can also make a script for designing packages. Like I make a total 3d cardboard box and it automaticly fold out into a template, instead of that I have to make a template adn then make it into a 3d.

I am using ArtiosCad for packaging now and it is 2d first then 3d and I would rather have the other way around.

I am also curious if it can also handle curved folds which is lately being used more and more in packaging. The program which I am using now can't handle curve or odd lines so if it is possible would be great in you look into this.
